Simple, Beautiful Scandinavian Style

I’ve always love Scandinanvian style – especially for the holidays. There’s something so beautiful about the simple, sweet style. I really grew to appreciate it when I visited Iceland and saw the local shops, towns and architecture of that country. The little towns with colorful homes, the simple patterns, the hearty food and beautiful landscapes.

I yearn for that simple, colorful way of life. I tried to recreate the feeling in the Scandinavian Snowflake Wood Plaque Ornaments that I made of our tree.

Scandinavian-inspired Joy to the World Mantel

I also brought the Scandinavian feeling in with the 3D paper trees I made for our Joy to the World mantel, as well as the embroidery hoop wreaths, the simple JOY sign and the spindle reindeer by our fireplace.

Scandinavian-inspired holiday printable tags

I wanted to create some simple Scandinavian-inspired printable tags to use on our gifts this year. I used some icons that remind me of the style – hearts, houses, trees and snowflakes. I love the simple style with the whimsical details! I used paper from my Pebbles Inc line to wrap the presents! You can buy it through Pebbles In My Pocket online!

The post 10 Scandinavian-Style Black and White Holiday Printable Tags appeared first on Tatertots and Jello.

I have a slight obsession with these milk containers from Michaels. They come flat in a package, but they are easy to assemble and are so cute for so many things! I used them on my 12 Days of Christmas Tree. (Tip: fold the horizontal fold below the top before you assemble — it will make your box fold more easily and look more crisp.)

I love the way they look snuggled into the branches. And I also love that they come in all kinds of colors, patterns and sizes. All you have to do is put it together and pop your present inside.

I made some free printable gift tags and also some gift tags in candy cane shapes — specifically to use with these little containers. I know how busy this time of the year is. So this is a very simple and easy idea that looks so pretty to give to your friends and neighbors but also saves you time.

You can add anything inside. I plan on making these Double Chocolate Cookies and giving them out this year.

I added a few different ribbons to dress them up. So easy and fast!

I added some of the Scallop Glitter Tape from my Home+Made line to this craft milk container. I think it looks so pretty!

Ready for the printables?
